Circular.

Complete arraug ments have been made
for the llth annual meeting of the Maine
State Grange, to be holden at Skowhegan,
December Pop, 1857. Railroad fare
and hotel accommodation have been sat
isfactorly reduced The meeting will be
an important one in consequence of the
election and installation of II new board
of officers. 1t is desirable that every
Subordinate Grange should be fully rep
resented. The Master or each Subordi-
nate Grange (and his wife, if a Matron)
are the delegates to the State Grange,
also the Pomona Grange is entitled to the
same representation. But if for any cause
the Master of Subordinate Grange IS UNI
able to attend, then any fourth degree
member of the Grange may be elected by
the Grange to attend as delegate Instead
of the Master. In order to have the full
est representation, when practicable the
subordinate Grange should aid in paying
the expenses Of the delegate, in order to
receive at the earliest time the "Annual
Word" The 9TH degree will be conferred
in form, and as the constitution has been
changed, for the first time, an opportun-
ity will be given to all of the members of
our order in g0od IdRdipg, residing in
this State, to receive the 6th degree. Ger
titicates to this effect should be obtained
duly signed by the Worthy Master and
the Secretary of the Subordinate Grange
to which the applicant belongs.

Letter from North Somerset
Grange.

We have received the following from
a good Patron of the above Grange and
are clad To learn that the Grange at Scion
still maintains courage and faith
BIO. ENER>oN: As | have not seen
anything in the paper from North Som
crsct Grange for some time. | will say
that although we have few at our meet
ingS at times, still we have courage and
faith to believe that better times are com
ing. Nov. 9TH we met in the hall on bust
ness, and after recess for refreshments,
consisting Of browuhread, bears. and
other good things, we were again called
to order by our Worthy OYcrseer and Il
public meeting was held. We had read
ng singing and speaking, and Il paper
read. 1t was IA very cold day but all
seemed to enjoy themselves we'll We
closed with march, and went Ia our
homes feeling better for meeting to-
gcthcr a. all true Patrons do. And now,
brothers aud sisters, as the State Grange
is coming into our midst. let us welcome
it with open hands and outStretchcd
arms. And let us be sure and have the
proprietors of the hotels ready for a
goodly number, and not be taken by sur
prise If a grand rush comes. | was at
Augusta also at Lewiston In both
places they dld not seem To TthllEc NHhl
large number belonged to our noble
Order. and were not prepared for 50
many At Lewiston, one day, there were
over 500, and from lj0 to 300 stopped at
one of the hotels"
We wish to add to what our cores
pendent has said in regard to the State
Grange, and say that the most that troub-
les us is the fear of not finding suitable
entertainment for all that will come. The
committee is working every effort possible
in this direction, but from the fact that
court will be in session at that time, it is
evident that the public houses in Skow-
hogan will be taxed to the utmost. We
hope however that none will stay away
from the State Grange ON that account.
Skowhegan Grange will do all it possibly
can to make everybody comfortable and
contented, and we are anxious to make
the coming session one of the best the
State Grange has ever held. We also
hope that the people of Skuwhcgan will
take pride in showing up our thriving
village to the best advantage. All sec
tions of the State will be represented,
and Skowhegan will not fail of being
benefited in proportion to the extent of
her welcome To those that come.

Another complete victory of organized
farmers IN the Grange has been achieved
by the Patrons of llusbandry of Vermont
The Interstate Commerce Commission
has decided in favor of the State Grange
in its case against the Central Railroad OF
Vermont, for its violation of the fourth
section of the law in charging more for
a short than long haul. Farm products
were being carried from Canada and dis
tant points to the Boston and other
eastern markets over this road and right
through the State for less freight than
that charged farmers for the same ser
vice over shorter distance The decis-
ion is a righteous one, and will be of
vast benefit to the farmers and other
shippers of the State. The commission
has ordered an immediate reduction of
local rates to ut least the though charges.
The railroad cannot raise its though
charges without losing that business,
hence a reduction is made of about 33
per cent on local rates, or one dollar
saved out of every three heretofore paid.

The last meeting of Pennington Grange
was held with Mr.. and Mrs. ID. G.. Averill
Wilton. After the regular business OF
the Grange was transacted, very neat
programme was carried out By the young
people present, consisting of music, read
ings and Rotations, all very prcttily
rendered. Before separating table was
spread and bountifully laden with baked
beans, brown bread and other goodies
too numerous to mention. Several mem
bers of Franklin Grange were in at
tendance, and their visit was highly APP,
preciated.
